The present invention describes all apparatus for making a foliar spray from a liquid and a particulate matter. The apparatus consists of a non-porous liquid receptacle, a basket for holding the particulate matter, intake means for transporting air from a blower to a manifold means for aerating the liquid and the particulate matter, and a blower for supplying the air. The liquid receptacle is typically a substantially horizontal, rectangular tank having a flat bottom and the manifold means includes a selected number of diffuser arms, the number of diffuser arms selected to cover a substantial portion of the area of the bottom surface of the liquid receptacle and is selectively proportionate to the volume of the receptacle. The manifold means may be easily removed from the liquid receptacle by means of a quick-disconnect coupler for ease of cleaning the liquid receptacle once the foliar liquid is removed from the liquid receptacle via outlet means.
